The Sandy Springs City Council expanded its public art collection by purchasing three sculptures and accepting a donated sculpture. Caprice, a stainless steel and bronze work by Charles Pilkey, was awarded to the city by Art Sandy Springs to place at the Abernathy Arts Center. The other pieces coming soon are Nesting, a steel and driftwood sculpture by Richard Herzog; UpCycle, made of steel, bicycle wheels and paint by sculptor Joni Younkins-Herzog; and Flowing Arches, painted steel by sculptor Matty Moyer. These artworks will be situated at Morgan Falls Overlook Park, Abernathy Greenway South and Windsor Meadows Park, respectively.<\/p>\n

“Public art is vital for energizing our environment, and I\u2019m thrilled to see our city’s collection continue to expand through collaborations with Art Sandy Springs,” says Mayor Rusty Paul. “Every investment in public art makes our city a more inviting place to live and work, and fosters a community that celebrates creativity in all forms.”<\/p>\n

These sculptures placed among the top nine in last year\u2019s Arts in the Open, a project by Art Sandy Springs and the city. The program hosts an annual competition in which local, regional and national artists make submissions to participate in the exhibit surrounding the City Green at City Springs. From each annual event, the city plans to purchase one or more sculptures to add to its growing public collection.<\/p>\n
